with the convenience of new construction. No detail was overlooked: new roofing, windows, doors, insulation, siding, mechanicals, flooring, lighting, tile, and more. The resort-style pool and spa add a luxurious focal point to the waterfront backyard, which boasts over 115 feet of pristine bay frontage.
Out back, a newly built 900-square-foot composite dock invites you to fish, relax, or watch dolphins at play, it is a true waterfront lifestyle experience.
The oversized detached 3 car garage is pre-plumbed and recently finished, with a deep 400-foot irrigation well keeping the landscaping vibrant.
Nestled in the peaceful Driftwood Estates neighborhood, you're only minutes from Sacred Heart Hospital, Grand Boulevard's upscale shopping and dining, and the sugar-white sands of the Gulf.
This is more than just a home. It's an opportunity to live a coastal lifestyle with comfort, space, and spectacular views.
